Well...

This week, a lady from Abbington's, the place we're getting the bridesmaid's dresses from, called to let me know that they couldn't do the dress in the colors I wanted. Only problem that makes it upsetting is that they originally told me they COULD. She then proceeded to list off other options that I could do and my head was just spinning. At one point she said, "Or you could just start over from scratch!" I don't think so! So it turns out the dresses can still be made with solid fuschia, and no light pink sash, which I was so excited about, as ya'll read in one of my previous post. : ( But for now I said to go ahead and order them since I have spent the last 3 weekends dress shopping and am fed up with it! They WILL work out one way or another, and I am hoping we can work out a way to make lighter sashes for them ourselves! This was my first experience with an almost "Bridezilla" moment and hopefully it won't flare up again before the wedding! I don't really see myself being that way. Although I make no guarantees.
Other than the dress incident, things have been going fairly well. As you can tell, I'm getting better at updating the blog, and am hopefully not boring ya'll too much! School is about the same. I had a chemistry test this week and feel pretty good about it. My grade should be up soon and I hope it's good news! Other than that, it hasn't been too crazy, just kind of tiring. Of course, if I went to bed before midnight every night I might feel a little more rested!
Moving right along, I can't think of much more to impart. Oh... Aubrie, Zach's niece, went POTTY for the first time on tuesday night! : ) We're hoping she's on her way to big girl underwear! Yeah Aubrie!
We hope everybody is have a great start to February!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...
